Hey everyone! Hope you all had a great weekend! It was cold here with a bit of snow. I had to work all weekend so I didn't mind.

I want to share a card with you today that I made for my very good friend Shauna! She is pregnant with her first child. I am soooo excited for her. We are a couple of big haired girls at heart, so this image is perfect.

Hey everyone! Hope you are all having a great week!

I want to share with you today my very first Youtube video! OMGoodness. I finally got up the courage to make one. It's in response to Janice's Favorite Craft Supplies of 2011. Her blog is http://cricutology.blogspot.com and her youtube channel is cricutologist32820. She has tons of videos you should check her out.

I don't have a tripod, so the video is a little shakey. Tell me what you think. I might make some card videos. Depends on the response to this one. Enjoy!Warning!! I say I LOVE IT about 500 times! LOL

Hey everyone! Hope you are having a great week.

I want to share with you a gift card holder I made. My son had to go to a birthday party Sunday afternoon and I only found the birthday invitation in his backpack on Sunday morning. LOL. That's a rush! So I thought that the gift card holders I made during Christmas would be perfect and super quick. To tell the truth I just used these to put cash in. I just fold up the bills and put it in the little slit.

So, I went to my little craft room and made this in a little over 5 minutes. I got all the specs from Mary over at CardzTV. She is amazing. She has made hundreds of videos. Make sure you go check her out and tell I sent you.
